SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
To be read attentively and acted accordingly before installing, operating or repairing the unit.
These recommendations apply to machinery processing or consuming air or inert gas. Processing of any other gas requires
additional safety precautions typical to the application which are not included herein.
If necessary, install a suction duct. Never obstruct the air inlet. Care
shall be taken to minimize the entry of moisture with the inlet air.
4. The aspirated air shall be free from flammable fumes or vapours,
e.g. paint solvents, that can lead to internal fire or explosion.
5. Air-cooled units shall be installed in such a way that an adequate
flow of cooling air is available and that the exhausted air does not
recirculate to the inlet.
6. Arrange the air intake so that loose clothing of people cannot be
sucked in.
7. Ensure that the discharge pipe from the compressor to the aftercooler,
air dryer or air net is free to expand under heat and that it is not in
contact with or close to flammable material.
8. No external force may be exerted on the air outlet valve; the connected
pipe must be free of strain.
9. If remote control is installed, the unit shall bear an obvious sign
reading:
DANGER: This machine is remotely controlled and may start
without warning.
As a further safeguard, persons switching on remotely controlled
units shall take adequate precautions to ensure that there is no one
checking or working on the machine. To this end, a suitable notice
shall be affixed to the start equipment.
10. On units with automatic start-stop system, a sign stating "This
machine may start without warning" shall be attached near the
instrument panel.
11. In multiple compressor systems manual valves shall be installed to
isolate each compressor. Non-return valves (check valves) shall not
be relied upon for isolating pressure systems.
12. Never remove or tamper with the safety devices, guards or insulations
fitted on the unit. Every pressure vessel or auxiliary installed outside
the unit to contain air above atmospheric pressure shall be protected
by a pressure-relieving device or devices as required.
13. Pipework or other parts with a temperature in excess of 80 degrees
celsius and which may be accidentally touched by personnel in nor-
mal operation shall be guarded or insulated. Other high-temperature
pipework shall be clearly marked.
OWNERSHIP DATA
In addition to normal safety rules which should be observed with stationary
air compressors and equipment, the following safety directions and
precautions are of special importance.
When operating this unit, the operator must employ safe working practices
and observe all related local work safety requirements and ordinances.
The owner is responsible for maintaining the unit in a safe operating
condition. Parts and accessories shall be replaced if unsuitable for safe
operation.
Installation, operation, maintenance and repair shall only be performed
by authorized, trained, competent personnel.
Normal ratings (pressures, temperatures, time settings, etc.) shall be
durably marked.
Any modification on the compressor or air dryer shall only be performed
in agreement with Atlas Copco and under supervision of authorized,
competent personnel.
If any statement in this book, especially with regard to safety, does not
comply with local legislation, the stricter of the two shall apply.
These precautions are general and cover several machine types and
equipment; hence some statements may not apply to the unit(s) described
in this book.
Installation
Apart from general engineering practice in conformity with the local
safety regulations, the following directives are specially stressed:
1. A compressor or air dryer shall be lifted only with adequate equipment
in conformity with local safety rules.
Loose or pivoting parts shall be securely fastened before lifting. It is
strictly forbidden to dwell or stay in the risk zone under a lifted load.
Lifting acceleration and retardation shall be kept within safe limits.
Wear a safety helmet when working in the area of overhead or lifting
equipment.
2. Any blanking flanges, plugs, caps and desiccant bags shall be
removed before connecting up the pipes. Distribution pipes and
connections shall be of correct size and suitable for the working
pressure.
3. Place the unit where the ambient air is as cool and clean as possible.

operative (in automatic operation).
3 Display Indicates the compressor operating
condition, measured values and
programmed parameters.
1 General description
1.1 Automatic control of the compressor
The regulator maintains the net pressure between programmable
limits by automatically loading and unloading the compressor.
A number of programmable settings, e.g. the unloading and
loading pressures, the minimum stop time and the maximum
number of motor starts are taken into account.
The regulator stops the compressor whenever possible to reduce
the power consumption and restarts it automatically when the
net pressure decreases.
1.2 Protecting the compressor
Shut-down
If the compressor element outlet temperature exceeds the
programmed shut-down level, the compressor will be stopped.
This will be indicated on display (3). The compressor will
also be stopped in case of overload of drive motor (M1) and,
for air-cooled compressors, also the fan motor (M2).
Shut-down warning
If the compressor element outlet temperature or dewpoint
temperature (Full-Feature compressors) exceeds a programmed
value below the shut-down level, this will also be indicated to
warn the operator before the shut-down level is reached.
Service warning
If the service timer exceeds a programmed value, this will be
indicated on display (3) to warn the operator to carry out some
service actions.

6 Service warning
A service warning will appear when the service timer has
reached the programmed time interval.
1. In case the service timer exceeds the programmed time
interval, alarm LED (8) will light up.
2. Press arrow key (12): r000 is shown (register 000).
Press enter key (5), S (S standing for Service)
appears. Use key (12) to scroll to r005 (register 005)
and press enter key (5), the actual reading of the service
timer will be shown in kHrs (hours x 1000) .
Example: 4.002 indicates that the compressor has run for
4002 hours since previous service.
3. Press enter key (5) and key (12) to scroll to r001
(register 001). Press key (5) to check the running hours,
which are shown in kHrs (hours x 1000).
Example of running hours screen:
kHrs
8.000
The screen shows that the number of running hours is 8000.
4. Stop the compressor, switch off the voltage and carry
out the service actions as explained in the maintenance
schedule in the related Instruction book.
Important
- The longer interval service actions must include the
shorter interval actions.
In the example above, carry out all service operations
belonging to the 8000 running hours interval as well as
those belonging to the 4000 running hours interval.
- If using mineral oil instead of Atlas Copco Roto-
injectfluid, the service timer interval has to be decreased:
500 running hours for 13 bar (175 psi) units and 1000
running hours for 7.5-10 bar (100-150 psi) units.
5. After servicing, reset the service timer (see section 7.5).
7 Scrolling through all screens
Scroll keys (12 and 13) can be used to scroll through all screens.
The screens are divided in register screens (numbered as r001,
r002,...) and parameter screens (numbered as P001,
P002,...).
During scrolling, the numbers of the screens appear consecutively.
For most screens, the unit of measurement and the related
pictograph are shown together with the screen number.
In case of a warning or shut-down, an extra register screen (r000)
is accessible.
Example:
kHrs
r001
The screen shows the screen number (r001), the unit used (kHrs
or hours x 1000) and the related pictograph for running hours.
Press enter key (5) to call up the actual running hours.

PART 2
ELEKTRONIKON II REGULATOR
- On GA Workplace FF with ICD the inlet temperature of the
compressed air into the dryer exceeds the warning level.
- On GA Workplace FF with ICD the pressure in the dryer
vessels is lower than the minimum or higher than the
maximum limit.
For compressors leaving the factory, this function is made
inactive. If desired, the function can be activated. Consult
Atlas Copco.
Warning If activated and provided the module was in the
automatic operation mode, the compressor will
automatically restart if the supply voltage to the
module is restored within a programmed time
period.
The power recovery time (the period within which
the voltage must be restored to have an automatic
restart) can be set between 10 and 600 seconds
or to Infinite. If the power recovery time is set to
Infinite, the compressor will always restart after
a voltage failure, no matter how long it takes to
restore the voltage. A restart delay can also be
programmed, allowing e.g. two compressors to be
restarted one after the other.
1 General description
1.1 Automatic control of the compressor
The regulator maintains the net pressure between programmable
limits by automatically loading and unloading the compressor.
A number of programmable settings, e.g. the unloading and
loading pressures, the minimum stop time and the maximum
number of motor starts are taken into account.
For GA Workplace FF with ICD, the regulator also maintains
the pressure dewpoint of the dryer between programmable
settings by defining the switching time. A number of
programmable settings are taken into account.
The regulator stops the compressor whenever possible to reduce
the power consumption and restarts it automatically when the
net pressure decreases. In case the expected unloading period
is too short, the compressor is kept running to prevent too-
short standstill periods.
Warning A number of time-based automatic start/stop
commands may be programmed (see section 13).
Take into account that a start command will be
executed (if programmed and activated), even
after manually stopping the compressor.
1.2 Protecting the compressor
Shut-down
If the compressor element outlet temperature exceeds the
programmed shut-down level, the compressor will be stopped.
This will be indicated on display (3-Fig. 2.1). The compressor
will also be stopped in case of overload of the drive motor and,
on air-cooled compressors, also the fan motor.
Shut-down warning
If the compressor element outlet temperature exceeds a
programmed value below the shut-down level, this will also be
indicated to warn the operator before the shut-down level is
reached.
Service warning
A number of service operations are grouped in plans (called
Service plans A, B and C). Each Service plan has a programmed
time interval. If a time interval is exceeded, a message will
appear on display (3-Fig. 2.1) to warn the operator to carry out
the service actions belonging to that plan. Consult the related
Instruction book.
Warning
- A warning message also appears if:
- On water-cooled compressors the cooling water outlet
temperature exceeds the warning level.
- On Full-feature compressors the dewpoint temperature
exceeds the warning level.

Footnotes chapter 17
1) Once the compressor is automatically stopped, it will remain stopped for the minimum stop time, whatever happens with the air net pressure. It is
recommended to program this setting at minimum 20 seconds to prevent too-short stopping periods. If a lower setting should be required, consult Atlas
Copco.
2) Is the period after starting which must expire before generating a warning. This setting should be less than the setting for delay at signal.
3) The regulator does not accept illogical settings, e.g. if the unloading pressure is programmed at 7.0 bar(e), the maximum limit for the loading pressure
changes into 6.9 bar(e). The recommended minimum pressure difference between loading and unloading is 0.6 bar.
4) The regulator does not accept illogical settings, e.g. if the warning level is programmed at 95 degrees Celsius, the minimum limit for the shut-down level
changes into 96 degrees Celsius. The recommended difference between the warning level and shut-down level is 10 degrees Celsius.
5) Use Atlas Copco oil separators. The recommended maximum pressure difference is 1 bar.
6) Is the time period during which the warning signal must exist before the warning message appears.
7) In case of LAN control. See related Instruction book, section 3.2. Consult Atlas Copco.
8) Is the time period during which the warning signal is ignored after starting to allow the dryer to reach the dewpoint temperature.
9) Recommended minimum setting: 70 degrees Celsius. For testing the temperature sensor, this setting can be decreased to 50 degrees Celsius. Reset the
setting value after testing.
10) Always consult Atlas Copco in case any timer setting should be changed. The intervals must not exceed the nominal intervals and must coincide
logically. See section 12.
11) Full-feature (FF): with integrated air dryer.
12) See section 1.3.

14. If the ground is not level or can be subject to variable inclination,
consult Atlas Copco.
15. The electrical connections shall correspond to the local codes. The
units shall be grounded and protected against short circuits by fuses.
Operation
1. Air hoses shall be of correct size and suitable for the working pressure.
Never use frayed, damaged or deteriorated hoses. Use only the correct
type and size of hose end fittings and connections. When blowing
through a hose or air line, ensure that the open end is held securely.
A free end will whip and may cause injury. Make sure that a hose is
fully depressurized before disconnecting it.
Never play with compressed air. Do not apply it to your skin or
direct an air stream at people. Never use it to clean dirt from your
clothes. When using it to clean equipment, do so with extreme caution
and use eye protection.
2. The compressor is not considered as capable of producing air of
breathing quality. For breathing air quality, the compressed air must
be adequately purified according to local legislation and standards.
3. Never operate the units when there is a possibility of taking in
flammable or toxic fumes.
4. Never operate the units at pressures below or in excess of their limit
ratings as indicated on the Principal Data sheet.
5. Keep all bodywork doors shut during operation. The doors may be
opened for short periods only, e.g. to carry out checks. Wear ear
protectors when opening a door.
6. People staying in environments or rooms where the sound pressure
level reaches or exceeds 90 dB(A) shall wear ear protectors.
7. Periodically check that:
a. All guards are in place and securely fastened
b. All hoses and/or pipes inside the unit are in good condition, secure
and not rubbing
c. There are no leaks
d. All fasteners are tight
e. All electrical leads are secure and in good order
f. Safety valves and other pressure-relief devices are not obstructed
by dirt or paint
g. Air outlet valve and air net, i.e. pipes, couplings, manifolds,
valves, hoses, etc. are in good repair, free of wear or abuse
8. If warm cooling air from compressors is used in air heating systems,
e.g. to warm up a workroom, take precautions against air pollution
and possible contamination of the breathing air.
9. Do not remove any of, or tamper with, the sound-damping material.
Maintenance
Maintenance and repair work shall only be carried out under supervision
of someone qualified for the job.
1. Use only the correct tools for maintenance and repair work.
2. Use only genuine spare parts.
3. All maintenance work, other than routine attention, shall only be
undertaken when the unit is stopped, the main power supply is
switched off and the machine has cooled down. Take positive
precaution to ensure that the unit cannot be started inadvertently.
In addition, a warning sign bearing a legend such as "work in
progress; do not start" shall be attached to the starting equipment.
4. Before removing any pressurized component, effectively isolate the
unit from all sources of pressure and relieve the entire system of
pressure.
5. Never use flammable solvents or carbon tetrachloride for cleaning
parts. Take safety precautions against toxic vapours of cleaning
liquids.
6. Scrupulously observe cleanliness during maintenance and repair.
Keep dirt away by covering the parts and exposed openings with a
clean cloth, paper or tape.
7. Never weld or perform any operation involving heat near the oil
system. Oil tanks must be completely purged, e.g. by steam-cleaning,
before carrying out such operations.
Never weld on, or in any way modify, pressure vessels.
Whenever there is an indication or any suspicion that an internal
part of a machine is overheated, the machine shall be stopped but no
inspection covers shall be opened before sufficient cooling time
has elapsed; this to avoid the risk of spontaneous ignition of the oil
vapour when air is admitted.
Never use a light source with open flame for inspecting the interior
of a machine, pressure vessel, etc.
8. Make sure that no tools, loose parts or rags are left in or on the unit.
9. Before clearing the unit for use after maintenance or overhaul, check
that operating pressures, temperatures and time settings are correct
and that the control and shut-down devices function correctly. If
removed, check that the coupling guard of the compressor drive shaft
has been reinstalled.
10. Every time the separator element is renewed, examine the discharge
pipe and the inside of the oil separator vessel for carbon deposits; if
excessive, the deposits should be removed.
11. Protect the motor, air filter, electrical and regulating components,
etc. to prevent moisture from entering them, e.g. when steam-cleaning.
12. Make sure that all sound-damping material, e.g. on the bodywork
and in the air inlet and outlet systems of the compressor, is in good
condition. If damaged, replace it by genuine Atlas Copco material
to prevent the sound pressure level from increasing.
13. Never use caustic solvents which can damage materials of the air
net, e.g. polycarbonate bowls.
14. The following safety precautions are stressed when handling
refrigerant:
a. Never inhale refrigerant vapours. Check that the working area
is adequately ventilated; if required, use breathing protection.
b. Always wear special gloves. In case of refrigerant contact with
the skin, rinse the skin with water. If liquid refrigerant contacts
the skin through clothing, never tear off or remove the latter;
flush abundantly with fresh water over the clothing until all
refrigerant is flushed away; then seek medical first aid.
c. Always wear safety glasses.
15. Protect hands to avoid injury from hot machine parts, e.g. during
draining of oil.
Note: With stationary machine units driven by an internal combustion
engine, allowance has to be made for extra safety precautions, e.g. spark
arrestors, fuelling care, etc. Consult Atlas Copco.
All responsibility for any damage or injury resulting from neglecting
these precautions, or by non-observance of ordinary caution and due
care required in handling, operating, maintenance or repair, even if
not expressly mentioned in this book, will be disclaimed by Atlas
Copco.
